The partnership with Carbonix marks Skyports Drone Services’ first commercial project in Australia.
Carbonix will deliver uncrewed aerial data acquisition capability at scale to Australian businesses through the partnership.
The expert pilots will operate regular data acquisition missions for Carbonix’s energy infrastructure and mining partners.
The partnership's long-term objective is to build Carbonix’s operational capabilities.
In the first phase of the partnership, Skyports Drone Services will embed specialist international drone pilots within Carbonix.
Under the multi-launch agreement, Exolaunch will provide the CarboNIX smallsat separation system for Muon Space through 2024.
CarboNIX has a flight heritage of nearly 70 satellites deployed across 14 missions and features a patented, low-shock design.
Carbonix signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Hitachi Vantara to collaborate on imaging data and analytics.
Aerospacelab's GRÉGOIRE satellite was deployed using a CarboNIX separation system on Transporter-8.
Satellogic's NewSat-40 through NewSat-43 were deployed using CarboNIX separation systems on Transporter-8.
Azista BST Aerospace's AFR-1 was deployed using a CarboNIX separation system on Transporter-8.
